Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

generationofswine The Highlander movies are a great explanation why people like me throw out a lot of hate about remakes.We are going to take what you love, ret-con away all the things that you loved about it and remake the movie only worse.The joke is that the movie was actually titled Highlander III: The Apology.Now, for those of you that haven't seen them, or don't read my reviews it worked like this.Highlander was fantastic and the game was over at the end of the movie. Connor won it by taking the Kurgan's head and he claimed the prize. It was a stand- alone and the audience adored it...myself included.Highlander II was a sequel, and because the first one was a stand alone and the game was over leaving no room for a sequel...they did a retcon, made them all aliens, and took away everything the fans and critics loved about the first one. Just like remakes and reboots tend to do.Highlander II realized the mistake of Highlander II and they did yet another retcon, ignoring the abysmal failure of Highlander II and brought back the things that the fans loved about the original...but, the original was a stand alone, so they retconed the ending again to give us a third movie and it didn't work.It did not work.Again, these are movies about immortals, there are thousands of years in which to make a movie...but instead of doing the obvious thing they did a retcon, of a retcon and it doesn't exactly work.But it didn't fail as much as Highlander II, and they didn't bring Sean back from the dead again, so...we were stuck with the TV show to redeem it all.

jessegehrig I will try to relate to you what I can remember: Mario Van Peebles is angry at the world and he takes his anger out on the world by acting, specifically by acting in a Highlander movie. What did the world DO to you, Mario? I'm glad that Evil can be defeated by swordplay, it's very reassuring. Hopefully all of the world's problems can be solved by dudes fighting each other with swords, also featuring songs by Queen and Rush. I think this movie has a "sex" scene, it's in quotations because I remember it being a weird scene, like far far less sexy than intended. This movie is from 1994, our year of years!!! Pavement, Dinosaur Jr., Pixies, Sonic Youth, Smashing Pumpkins...

swedzin From my point of view, this was an attempt to put back puzzle in normal after the terrible "Highlander 2 - The Quickening" sequel. Well, they did it, but still, the film is nothing special. What I like about is film... it has a very different way of telling story, different tempo of the proceeding through the film. In a way, it's a kind of lemonade film... a quite relaxing. Everything is relaxing and nothing special, just like some kind of TV film from "Hallmark", you know, when come back home, after the work, you eat something, than you sit back, or lie down on your favorite couch and you stumble upon this film, and then you just relax.Simply nothing is touching you so deep about this film, everything is hollow. Everything is like "oh, OK", "oh, they have a sword fight, right", "allrighty", "nothing here..." "that's good..." in kinda boring way.Actors: Christopher Lambert - wooden, doing nothing but talks like a bored Frenchman. Deborah Kara Unger - about her later. Just keep reading. Mario Van Peebles - his performance was funny, He keep it creepy and ugly, the way his character is supposed to be, well that's his way to perform it, his way to see this character, but it was weird that he keeps remind us on Kurgan, and that pig growls... damn... spit out those slimes from your throat... Jesus! Mako - His "guest role" was fine and relaxing as a great Japanese immortal sword master. And to mention Raoul Trujillo (warrior 2) from "Apocalypto" and "True Blood" season one (the Longshadow vampire dude), it was interesting to see him from his younger days.OK - now for the highlight of review... Probably the best thing in whole film, was no more or no less - the SEX scene! The sex scene between Christopher Lambert and Deborah Kara Unger was more than impressive! Wow, they did it without a double. That was a real talent between the two of them. Good movements and good "coreography" during the sexual "work", combined with a "f..kable music during the scene. The sex scene music was more than exciting, it's like... the band members were there, watching the horny couple and they composed the music on the spot and say, "allright, let's perform it!" Damn... that was good. Too bad I can't find a soundtrack. For me, this sex scene is 'number uno' in the motion picture history. The Best. About Deborah Kara Unger... her performance in film was so not interesting, that everybody expect thesame "Go on, Connor! F..k her!!!" YEeeeeeeeahhh!!!! They did it!! To mention about music, it was also a fine thing, it was good and relaxing. Highlander - The Sorcerer film is nothing more than, relax... take it easy... but you'll get horny during the sex scene he he.

Matthew_Diamond ...but it is so bad, it is fun to watch in a way. It is so terrible that I have a hard time mentioning it. Perhaps it was the grainy film that made the 1985 original with Clancy Brown (The Kergan) so much better. Some movies require a sequel, or maybe two, while others like "Highlander" require--and demand--none at all. "Highlander III" however is not nearly as bad as "Highlander II-The Quickening", which I feel like a goofball for having watched in the theater on its opening Friday night, in which "We're gonna be okay" uttered by MacCleod garnered instant and thunderous Boos from the college crowd. By the time we had managed to get to the end of this mishmashed misdirected glob of a movie, totally a discredit to the original "Highlander" the screen was totally bombarded by soda cups, popcorn and half-eaten candy bars.Actually, "Highlander III" like the second sequel serves as excellent training for film students on the why's and how's a sequel should not be made. Shortly after MacCleod's 'reawakening' and within moments after arriving in New York, he is greeted by a carful of thugs which conveniently show up and shoot him--a wonderful advertisement for why we should not want to visit New York--if all tourists and guests to this fine city would be greeted in the same horrific manner.Directors and producers: let sleeping dogs lay. Don't awaken a sleeping giant that is much more of a "Godzilla" than a "Lord of the Rings." Stop trying so hard to get the Oscar, and just stick to the basics of good film making. "Highlander III" illustrates once again why some movies should never have existed. What a waste of money and talent!
